<br />. <br /> <br />w <br />W <br />Q <br />... <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />CHAPTER II <br /> <br />GENERAL APPROACH TO THE WORK <br /> <br />Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act <br /> <br />The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401 as amended; 16 D.S.C.' <br />661 et seq.) requires the Water and Power Resources Service to consult with <br />the Fish and Wildlife Service on water resource development projects which <br />could impact fish and wildlife resources. The Fish and Wildlife Service, in <br />conjunction with the State wildlife resource agency, is afforded the opportunity <br />to review proposed Water and Power developments and submit. a report that may <br />recommend actions to mitigate, compensate, or enhance th~-wildlife-resources. <br />Water and Power then considers Fish and Wildlife Service findings and recommenda- <br />tions in the final project plan. <br /> <br />Flood Control Act <br /> <br />The Flood Control Act of December 22, 1944 (58 Stat. 887) authorizes the <br />construction of certain public works on rivers and harbors for flood control <br />and other purposes. It does require, however, the recognition of the int~rests <br />and rights of the states and the preservation and protection of the Nation's <br />rivers to the fullest possible extent for all established and potential pur- <br />poses. <br /> <br />Executive Orders 11988, Flood Plain Management and <br />11990, Protection of Wetlands <br /> <br />The intent of Executive Order 11988, issued May 24, 1977, is to prevent <br />to the extent ,possible', the adverse impacts associated with the occupancy and <br />.modification of flood plains and to avoid support of floodplain deve10pmeht <br />wherever there is a practical alternative. It calls on each agency_, in'carry- <br />iug out its responsibility, to reduce the risk of flood loss, to minimize the' <br />impact of floods on human safety, health, and welfare, and to restore and pre-' <br />serve the natural and beneficial values served by flood plains. <br /> <br />Executive Order 11990, also of May 24, 1977, waS issued by the Presiden~ <br />to instruct Federal agencies to avoid the adverse impacts associated with the <br />destruction or modification of wetlands and to avoid support of'new construc- <br />tion in wetlands wherever there is a practical alternative. <br /> <br />In July of 1979, Water and Power adopted regulations which provide a <br />description of the processes for implementing these two executive orders. <br />Herein the Service shall assure that these policies and guidelines be employed <br />in the multiobjective planning process to a scope and level appropriate to the <br />study (appraisal, feasibility, definite p1an).- <br /> <br />Safe Drinking Water Act and <br />Federal Water Pollution Control Act <br /> <br />Two Federal acts that must be considered in planning any water projects <br />are the Safe Drinking Water Act (P.L. 93-523) and the Federal Water Pollution <br />Control Act, as Amended (also called the Clean Water Act) (P.L. 95-217).
